REVIEWS on TRIP…
"" Everything there is amazing and exactly what you'd expect if you want a Tuscan experience. It was like a movie. The views from the property were outstanding and the hospitality would not be matched. This family goes above and beyond for guests. … I could go on and on about this place... It was a dream. Amazing! and I would very highly recommend it for anyone looking for that true Tuscan experience. ."" Amy
"" How can you put into words the perfect month in Tuscany?? Two words: Villa Cafaggiolo!!! The most magnificent place to spend time in Italy. La Dolce Vita... "" Betty
"" We were very happy with the Villa Cafaggiolo on a week's family holiday. I had searched through a of lovely looking villa's in Tuscany but was delighted with the end choice! We had a very warm welcome from Paola and we instantly hit it off. Paola and Niccolo were very helpful suggesting local hot spots and where to go. The villa is very well kept and in a very quiet little spot but close enough to the nearby towns for food, restaurants. We felt like we had the place completely to ourselves and enjoyed relaxing by the pool. I loved waking up to singing birds..."" Jennifer
"" I have stayed at Villa Cafaggiolo several times in the past 10 years. It is a beautiful property, perfectly situated on a commuter train line 20 minutes East of Florence. The property itself is very picturesque with all of the buildings done in Tuscan farm style. There is a lovely swimming pool and a rose garden. But what makes the experience of visiting Cafaggiolo so memorable is the warmth and friendliness and helpfulness of the owners, the Pucci family. They are always ready with a recommendation of where to eat, what to see, where to get the best gelato in Florence,etc. They truly treat the guests as if they are family, and many guests are repeat customers. They love what they do, and it shows. They are the perfect innkeepers!""Lisa
"" Such a beautiful spot off the beaten path! The Pucci family has paid attention to every detail to make Villa Cafaggiolo the perfect place to call home while exploring Tuscany. We stayed in the Giotto Apartment. It was so cozy and welcoming. The architectural detail of the space is a story in itself. So well done! The decor is charming and filled with collectables found at local flea markets. The beds are beyond comfortable with wonderful crisp ironed sheets and personal down comforters designed by Paola! Genious!..."" Karen
"" ... the location is close enough to drive to Florence or take the train( which we did). Niccolo is very knowledgable and loves Tuscany and shares it well. Paola his mom is delightful lady. Very attentive, no question is too small. She loves to practice her English. Sergio, her husband is the man in the background who makes a lot of things happen""John
